Czech Repubblic reception oct 27

great zither

zither, flute and violin

Reception featured typical products from the region of Zlin. A tent was set up outside where the band was as well as some of the food. Featured was a rather bitter but good beer called Janacek to go along with the gulash, pork, two types of dumplings (not light!), cheese and desserts which were mostly fried types of dough. There were also czech wines offered. we tried one of the whites which was light but i enjoyed it.
